Biography

Francis Ray Mouton Jr. (April 1, 1947 – February 5, 2026) was an American lawyer. He was known for his 1984 legal defense of Father Gilbert Gauthe, a Roman Catholic priest who was convicted of molesting 37 children, in the first widely publicized trial for child sexual abuse in the church. He subsequently co-authored a report detailing a great deal more abuse by clergy, warning the church that they stood to lose a billion dollars. The church ignored the report, which catalyzed a moral crisis for Mouton in which he got divorced, became an alcoholic, and moved to Europe. He published a novel about abuse in the church and a guidebook to Pamplona.
